• New - Motor position with central layshaft position, offering improved weight distribution, drivetrain efficiency and flexibility. Provides an easier and more consistent handling car with improved steering. 
• New - Twin upper suspension link design with improved flexibility characteristics and tuning of castor. Mi7 Single upper wishbone option included for simplified build. 
• New - Front body height limit control included in the kit with a lightweight and simple layout.
• New - Carbon fibre wishbones with pivot ball mounting inside and out.  Improved flexibility, geometry, droop stability and chassis overhang at the rear.  Ease and speed of build greatly improved.
• New - Top deck design.  Highly developed flexibility with multiple integration options to the motor mount providing fast but smooth handling out of the box.
• New - Motor mount.  Provides increased fore/aft stiffness of the chassis, while maintaining the desired torsional stiffness for stable handling.New - Vastly shortened shock absorber design and new mounting layout allowing for super low centre of gravity.
• New - Ultra lightweight and low centre of gravity one piece servo mount. Increases steering trim reliability.New - Horizontal rear body mounting option included.New - Easier access front spool and rear differential.
• New - Transmission housing design with many improvements such as lowering centre of gravity, durability, ease of assembly and narrower mounting pitch for improvements to geometry and flexibility.
• New - Anti Roll Bar design to further lower centre of gravity.New - Ultra fine adjustment eccentrics for optimum belt tension.
• New - Lower bumper mount moulding preventing touching down on track.New - Black Alloy turnbuckles for weight reduction and improved lower centre of gravity.New - Ackerman steering arms for refined steering feel.

• Motor positioned closely behind the front axle – perfect for FWD
• Forward weight distribution – for better traction
• Alloy motor mount - Strength and motor heat dissipation
• Gear differential – offers maximum adjustability and low maintenance
• Large differential and layshaft pulleys - Minimises belt loading without the belt jumping and maximises belt efficiency
• Alloy front driveshaft bone and steel axle – great for both weight and strength
• Lightweight alloy rear axles – low inertia for increased acceleration
• 12 piece ball bearing set - Ultra low rolling resistance
• Single-pivot steering for optimal Ackermann
• Rear in-board toe-in options - For excellent traction on slippery surfaces
• Rear out-board toe-in options via track rod – quick toe in adjustments
• Front and rear anti-roll bars included
• Threaded shock bodies – fast and easy ride height adjustments
• Lightweight front bumper design
• Shorty LiPo and Full Length LiPo compatibility
• Quick release battery mounting – no tape required

The Schumacher CAT L1 is an all new lightweight, high quality 1/10th 4WD Off Road buggy, developed for top level racing.  The CAT L1 is faster, with all new fully adjustable suspension geometry, a lower centre of gravity, and improved efficiency.  The CAT L1 has been developed at the highest level of international competition, and is already a proven race winner with Michal Orlowski and Jörn Neumann. 

Join the race winning team.  #Schumacherfamily and drive a CAT L1.

The CAT L1 a revolution of the breed.

The Cougar Laydown is lower, lighter, easier to maintain, and faster!
It is a very versatile platform, with outstanding performance on a wide range of grip levels, from carpet, astro and dirt.
The Laydown has been developed by the Schumacher Engineering and racing team who have won multiple international races, including the prestigious EOS series.
That race winning knowledge and experience has been applied to every detail of the Laydown’s design to make a fast, easy to drive, and user friendly 2WD buggy that can take you to the top of the podium.
